Wheels For Wishes is the car donation program benefiting Make-A-Wish Tri-Counties.

Wheels For Wishes is also a nonprofit. That means your car donation is completely tax deductible. The unwanted vehicle sitting in your driveway could get you a great tax deduction that you can put towards something you do want.

Free Towing Anywhere In The Tri-County Area

If your old car is holding you back, donate it and benefit Make-A-Wish kid. We will pick up your car from anywhere and you will enjoy the perks of free towing and a tax deduction.

Your Vehicle Donation Makes A Huge Impact

“In 2016, Make-A-Wish Tri-Counties delivered 98 wishes to kids across Ventura, Santa Barbara and San Luis Obispo counties. With the support of our dedicated volunteers, staff and donors we hope to exceed that goal in 2017! Thank you again for your support and for believing in the power of a wish.”

Pattie Mullins, Chief Executive Officer of Make-A-Wish Tri-Counties

Donate your old car to make wishes come true like Bryson’s wish to go to Disney World.

The best part of your car donation to Wheels For Wishes is that it benefits Make-A-Wish Tri-Counties. This means your donation can help them grant wishes for kids in your own community. Donate your car today for an effortless way to give back to these local kids.

We Accept Vehicles In Almost Any Condition:

Cars

Boats

RV

Motorcycle

Trailers

Jet Skis

We accept just about any vehicle, but we also offer free towing all over the tri-county area. That’s great news for anyone who wants to get rid of a vehicle but doesn’t want to pay to have it removed. Free towing makes car donation one of the easiest decisions you can make.

No matter the type of vehicle or its condition, it will make a difference. We even accept cars that no longer run. Many people hold onto an old vehicle with the hope of fixing it up one day. This can take up much-needed storage space. Rather than holding onto an unwanted vehicle, you can put it to better use by donating it to help the kids of Make-A-Wish Tri Counties!

Our Mission

Wheels For Wishes believes that every child, no matter his or her health, deserves a chance to have a happy and fulfilling childhood. By donating your vehicle, we are able to raise funds to support Make-A-Wish chapters in locations throughout the country, helping grant wishes to children with life-threatening medical conditions. A wish is an opportunity for a child to focus on something other than their medical routines, and be a kid again.

As of January 2020, based on the average cost of a wish, donors like you have helped Wheels for Wishes contribute to grant more than 9,451 wishes and counting.
